  1. Oooh I love it! Those are some of my favorite colors! :) Of course I follow you through Google and Bloglovin' (makes me sound like a stalker haha!)! Oh man, I do a million weird/silly things a day! But if I have to choose I'd say the silliest was when I was about 15, my friend and I got a set of walkie-talkies for christmas and we were testing them out in my yard and obviously using code names, when my neighbor who I had a huge crush on at the time walked in my yard just as I was shouting through my friend's walkie-talkie, "this is bluebird to badger, come in badger, are you there?"! Luckily I don't embarrass easily haha! :)

  3. Hi cb, lovely birdies. I regularly do silly things, but thinking of just one is hard :) hollycroft94@sky.com

    I think one of the silliest things I've done is when I was 15 I had my pony Shamus (male), my friend had a pony called Bobbin (female). They were very much in love, & would spend hours pining for each other when one left the field. Well, one spring, when the cow parsley was everywhere, Becca & I decided that our ponies should get married, so we shoved tons of cow parsley in their bridles & around our saddles & had a little service for them, my Mum officiated. The ponies enjoyed eating the flowers from each others heads & it was decided that was their way of saying 'I do'. Sadly they had to 'separate' a couple of years later when I outgrew him & had to sell him :( So daft, but fun. xx

  4. I love that little painting! I am crazy for minature paintings! They are really tickle my fancy. Anywho, the silliest thing I have ever done...When I was younger and possibly blonder, I was cooking ramen or something and coudn't remember if I turned off the electric stove burner so to test it, I stuck my hand right on the element. I DID turn it off but it wasn't cooled off yet and left a lovely pattern on my hand and a pretty bad burn. :/ Just plain silly that I did that!

  5. oh goodness...the silliest thing. I'm going to think for a minute.

    Ok I've got one. When I was a senior in high school, my friends and I went to a party out in the country. They had a HUGE bonfire going and you had to sort of walk around a hill to get to it. Well I decided that dang-it I didn't want to walk! So I put my hands up in the air and slid my little booty down the hill. It was the middle of fall, so I disappeared into the leaves... apparently it was quite the entertainment for everyone there. I think several people referenced it when they signed my yearbook.

    *sigh* to be young and sliding down hills again.

  6. hello there, well I have a stealing story as well. On my birthday awhile ago my friends and I went to this bar called the X-mas tree bar where decorate the whole place with ornaments, etc. Needless to say I had a few drinks and left that bar with a X-mas tree angel which I still use on my tree. :)

  7. Ah, how fun!!!! I follow (of course). The silliest thing I've done is organize and implement a "whipped cream fest" my junior year of highschool. It was an epic whipped-cream battle in my friend's backyard -- a fair amount of our class showed up, and all the local grocery stores sold out of whipped cream. What I didn't think of was the fact that whipped cream goes sour in the heat. We smelled AWFUL for days!

  8. i am a new follower with gfc. i love birds in art.
    and the silliest (stupidest?) thing i've ever done (in high school, mind you :-) is when my friend and i used a can of hairspray (aqua net, of course) to light afire an unraveling roll of toilet paper- what with our crisp, 80's style hairsprayed bangs and the copious amount of flammable paper we set my friend's hair on fire, as well as the t.p. the acrid smell of burning hair shall forever be ingrained in my mind.

    memories. :-)

    thanks!

  10. I love all these stories! :)
    Mine is also about high school. I played clarinet in the concert band, and one morning I lost one of the tiny screws that held part of the instrument together. I couldn't find an extra in my case, so I said, loudly, and into the suddenly silent room, "I need a screw!"
    Yeah, high school boys did not let me live that one down for a long time.

  12. silly things come natural to me. one time I was jumping on the trampoline with my sister.I decided it would be a good idea to put on a pair of high heels and do an irish jig whilst jumping on the trampoline. well i was being a little bit tpo cocky and kept showing off my cool skills when all of a sudden i couldnt control where i was jumping and I jumped right off the trampoline on to my behind. it was a very silly thing to do and my bum was stinkin sore for aaaaages.

    oh my email is teebarham@gmail.com

  13. Hmmm....the silliest thing I've ever done was forget to tell the printer to take off the die lines on this huge print project I was doing. That may not be silly, but it was certainly embarrassing when the project went to 4,000 people with terrible red, white, and blue dotted lines everywhere! Ah! Worst mistake ever!
